Todd James Photography
San Diego, CA
  • Classic style

I love savoring moments deeply. As I look back on my life, the moments that stick out are not necessarily those that involve some exotic adventure or some grandiose experience. While I love adventure and appreciate exciting experiences as much as the next guy, the moments that I remember are those that I take the time to notice, those that I intentionally experience with the fullness of all of my senses, those that I mark as holy or sacred, those that I consecrate. It’s this that drives my photographic and creative ventures. I would be so honored to talk with you further about the possibility of capturing your wedding day.

I'm a restless wanderer with a new project always brewing in my head. It could be building a custom camper van, a new character to develop, or designing my dream off grid compound. Photography helps me to be completely in the moment, focused on what's happening in the here & now. It allows me to fully connect with the energy of the situation, & to capture that energy as I feel it. My images are meant to be timeless, to maintain their feeling as styles change and fads come & go. When in nature I find myself always in a state of awe, thinking of the ancient feet that have walked the same path & the wandering eyes that have seen the same sights.

  • Serves Carlsbad, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

Randall and team were amazing to work with. They captured our wedding day from start to finish beautifully! Randall is very professional and easy going. This made a day full of photos and posing so easy. He has a vision and is able to execute it. His partner Ken was also a great addition to our special day. They were fun and easy to work with my other vendors as well. My friends and family have said nothing but great things about the outcome of our photos. The quality is amazing!!! We also received our gallery timely. Other vendors have you beg for updates on your photos and end up being disappointed. Randall kept communication open even after our wedding was over and provided updates without having to wonder. Don’t hesitate and book now! You will not be disappointed! Photos are one of the best memories you will have of your wedding day and you want someone who will capture that for you. That is Randall.

I cannot recommend Drzazga Photo enough! When we first met Carly we knew right away she would be so easy to work with, make us feel at ease, and take some really incredible pictures- all of which she went above and beyond to make come true during both our engagement and wedding photos. Communication was always clear and quick, offering us recommendations for other vendors or photo locations, her and Kasey even came to our rehearsal just so they were prepared for the next day. Even a year and a half later I still look through our photos and find a new “favorite one” each time, they’re just that good! We also decided to add on their Videography service closer to our wedding and I’m so so glad we did that. There’s something really special about being able to really hear and see to remember the day. Kasey’s editing was fantastic, he created one of my favorite things to come out of our wedding. Drzazga is definitely the best and will only make your wedding better, easier, and less stressful!

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

Awarded Best of Zola
Simply put, Justin is the BEST of the BEST. While his photos are undeniably beautiful in every way, it is Justin’s personality, humor, flexibility, professionalism, and panache that set him apart from all the rest. He was one of the first vendors we hired and, from day one, we knew were in excellent and expert hands. He took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, which allowed us to have a seamless relationship (and friendship!) by the time we actually stood in front of his camera during our sweetheart session and on our wedding day. This level of comfort was key — neither my husband nor I had ever been professionally photographed, but Justin made us feel completely at ease by cracking jokes, making us whisper funny things in each other’s ears, and giving us gentle guidance about what we could do to make the moment, well, picture perfect! Justin goes above and beyond for his clients. During a pre-wedding chat, I mentioned the possibility of having anxiety about being the center of attention on our wedding day and the pressure of talking to so many family and friends. Justin suggested we have a signal between us so that he could whisk me away if I was stuck talking to someone for too long. I’m lucky that I didn’t need to use the signal, but just knowing Justin had my back was hugely comforting. Additionally, after we hired Justin, we were at a loss for where else to turn for the other million things needed to put this wedding together. In a flash, Justin was there with infinite recommendations based on our taste, our budget, and his own vendor relationships. Hiring Justin was one of the best decisions we made and I would recommend him a thousand times over!!!!!

While some photographers emphasize their gear or trendy post-processing, I take pride in subject-photographer interaction - the relation I build with clients, picking up on nuances in pose and expression while we shoot, anticipating the viewers' response - because ultimately, that's how photographs that matter to us are created. I'm a native New Yorker who found myself relocating to Los Angeles and making it my home. Wherever you'd like to have your wedding, it would be my pleasure to be your photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can not express how much I appreciate Stephen's work for our wedding (but I'll give it a try). From the first time we met, I could tell he was exactly what I was looking for. Someone who could take a group of dorky introverts and make them look like the stars of the show without making us feel silly or stressed. On the day of our wedding, he was able to keep up with our crazy huge wedding party and fast paced timeline. He was a hit with my family, my grandmother is still talking about how sweet he was and what a great job he did. After the wedding he took a couple weeks to edit the photos( a very quick turnaround in my opinion). I was absolutely dazzled. The moments he was able to capture will be celebrated in the family album for decades. I would recommend Stephen to anyone that wants a beautiful and personal photography experience that will truly reflect the soul of his subjects.

We were fortunate enough to have Randell as our wedding photographer and videographer as I just stumbled to find him in a local wedding facebook group and without a doubt, he is THE BEST! From the moment we met him, it was evident that his professionalism and passion for his craft set him apart. His efficiency on the big day was truly remarkable. He seamlessly blended into the background, ensuring he captured every significant moment without being intrusive. His ability to organize group shots and direct us for those perfect candid moments showcased his experience and expertise. Now, let's talk about the photos - they are nothing short of spectacular! The only "problem" Randell presented us with was making every single photo look so incredible that it's nearly impossible to choose our favorites! As an artist myself, to me each image is a work of art, reflecting his keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of lighting and composition. Randell not only delivered on capturing the essence of our wedding day but exceeded our expectations. His creativity and skill turned ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. We are beyond grateful for his dedication and the timeless images he has given us to cherish for a lifetime. If you're in search of a wedding photographer who not only meets but exceeds expectations, look no further than Randell.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Working with Love Knot Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Isaac has an incredible eye and attention to detail, and it shows in the end result. I'm really glad to have had his expertise in setting up our wedding day timeline, and he delivered everything I was hoping for and much more in the final photos. His use of lighting and the natural environment is really special. The natural aesthetic of the finished photos is gorgeous. I have a large family and it was no easy task to deal with their different personalities and requests and Love Knot handled everything perfectly. The entire time throughout this process of planning and throwing a wedding Isaac has been very responsive and willing to help us with any questions we have anytime. It's an art to create photos this special, and another type of art to manage a business and respond to the individual needs of a client. And it's beautiful to see both come together so seamlessly. I will definitely be recommending Love Knot Photography to any of my family or friends who may be searching for a photographer.

Meet Ellen, a Southern California native and seasoned visual storyteller: I've been photographing events and portraiture since 2017 and specialize in destination weddings and elopements. For me, the best part about being a photographer is getting to witness my client’s once in a lifetime memories being created and knowing that my work will allow future generations to experience those memories as well. I take on all types of creative photo shoots when I'm not shooting weddings.

I worked as the day of coordinator for wedding back in March. The original photographer got sick and wasn’t able to work the wedding and had Joyce as her back up. Joyce only had <48 hr notice that she was going to shoot a wedding…and spoiler alert, she did great! Joyce arrived on time and got to shooting right away. She took direction easily and was very flexible. Her turnaround time was great and it felt like we got the album back in no time! While working as a college student and photographer, I highly suggest Joyce!

4.5 months after our big day, we are still ooo-ing and ahh-ing at the magic Anna captured on our wedding day! She's not only an incredibly talented artist, but the most thoughtful, caring friend who brought all the positive vibes. I love that she includes an engagement session in her wedding package- by the time the wedding came, we felt comfortable with Anna and trusted she would capture all the special moments of our wedding day. And capture them, she did! Before the wedding, she scouted out all the picturesque locations, giving us the most beautiful back drops I didn't even know our venue had! Lastly, she created a special sneak-peek of photos for my husband's auntie who last minute could not attend. So thoughtful! Her assistant, Linda also brought such positive energy and made us immediately feel like friends. Thank you so much, Anna!! We'll cherish our wedding photos for a lifetime thanks to you!
